CHAPTER 255: CHAPTER 258 INSTINCT OF LOVE (9)

Mia Ginger nodded obediently.

He tightened the hand hanging by his side, stopped looking, and stepped up to the store owner, saying, "Excuse me. We’ll have a cup of instant noodles, shrimp and fish cake flavor, two tea eggs, a cup of hot milk tea, and a bottle of hot water."

The owner quickly grabbed the items, "30 yuan."

Koa Jackson pulled out the money and gestured to Mia Ginger with a nod, and the two of them sat down at an empty spot nearby.

They started climbing the mountain at eleven, and now it had been five hours.

Earlier, she felt a bit uncomfortable after drinking pure water, but after gulping down a mouthful of milk tea, Mia Ginger felt utterly satisfied.

The instant noodles and tea eggs were also very delicious.

Koa Jackson didn’t eat much, sitting upright on the bench, always lowering his gaze to watch her.

Mia Ginger felt embarrassed being stared at.

She lowered her head to see the dark-colored cotton coat she was wearing.

A bit embarrassed, she ruffled her hair and muttered, "Do I look silly and rustic like this?"

Unlike Koa Jackson.

He had no time to change clothes, climbing the mountain still dressed in a suit and leather shoes, after more than five hours, his demeanor was very calm.

Poised enough to attend a business cocktail party at any moment.

And then look at her?

Already totally devoid of image.

Mia Ginger sighed, feeling indescribably frustrated.

"What are you thinking?" Koa Jackson tousled her hair, sounding exasperated.

"But you keep looking at me."

"On this whole South Mountain, you are the only one who is mine, if I don’t look at you, who should I look at?" Koa Jackson examined her, asking with interest.

His words were ambiguous, and Mia Ginger’s face immediately turned beet red.

Koa Jackson’s long fingers reached over, pinched her cheek, and said nothing further.

Just sighed a bit inside.

This girl, so thin-skinned, easily teased.

He was used to being aloof and never had the mind to tease anyone, but now, every time he saw her, he couldn’t help but tease her a bit.

Watching her blush and feel embarrassed, his mood became very pleasant.

Koa Jackson couldn’t resist smiling, tapped her head with the water bottle, and urged, "Don’t zone out, hurry up, or you won’t catch the sunrise."

"Oh." Mia Ginger quickly lowered her head, gobbling down her food.

Soon, she finished the instant noodles.

They headed together towards the East Peak.

Six ten, finally arrived.

The sun hadn’t risen yet, but the sky was already getting brighter.

Below was an abyss of thousands of feet, surrounded by clouds and mist, the sky tinged with glowing hues, everything in sight was incredibly beautiful.

Mia Ginger turned her head to glance at Koa Jackson, and couldn’t help but snuggle up to him.

Koa Jackson took her hand, helped her onto a slightly higher stone, made her hold onto the chain for support, while he stood behind her, embracing her tightly.

The morning wind at the mountaintop was piercingly cold.

Mia Ginger’s soft hair was blown into disarray, Koa Jackson turned his face, pressed his cheek against her cold one, and asked gently, "Cold?"

"Not cold, you..."

Mia Ginger’s words trailed off suddenly.

The splendid rays of light came shining through, Koa Jackson raised his gaze to the distance, at the horizon, the golden sun leapt out of the deep blue sky.

Extremely beautiful.

The cheers and shouts of the crowd came through.

Koa Jackson embraced Mia Ginger from behind, suddenly felt touched.

Mia Ginger said nothing too, listening to the excited young people shouting, "Oh! The sun has come out..."

..."

A very crisp and clear voice echoed through the valley, far away, seeming to drift back.

Many could hear.

Attracted by her voice, they turned to look at the two of them.

Unable to look away.

"Brother Jackson, do you want to shout?"

"No need." Koa Jackson shook his head.

Mia Ginger laughed with a soft "Mm," a fleeting hint of regret passed through her eyes.
